About me:
::storytellers, mythmakers, bookbinders, defenders of the ephemeral arts::

Seraphemera Books:
A gothique boutique publisher of handmade books, handmade journals, gothic novelties, new writer chapbooks, comic books and more...

..


As a parliament of rooks or an exaltation of larks before them, Seraphemera Books is a decay of artists who are, amidst this darkened age of memoir culture (as the alchemists of old who sought to turn lead into gold), seek the method and means to bring diamonds to dust.

We create hand-bound books that are not just journals or aesthetic pleasures, but have stories entwined throughout the textures and turnstiles of printed pages.

We create hand-made paper from all of the scrap that is used in the progress of process.

We create that which is sought through process - to summon up the oomph to carry on, to bring forth imagination in a world that bombards with due dates and electric bills and responsibilities.

We know of only one responsibility, thus: to tell the tale. If this leaves us too far to the wing of the innocent dreamer for our age and experience, for this an age of seemingly pending oblivion...then so be it.

Our work is the continuation of the pursuit of wings and fire and the flight that comes from the synthesis of these concepts.

Constantly changing, daring to evolve, attempting to be wrong with the root of experience over academia in sight.

In relentless search for endless possibility to see us through this age of infinite choice.

Vampires, they say, blow an unearthly beauty, Their bodies are all suffused with a soft witch-fire, Their flesh like an opal...their hair like the float of night. Why do we muse upon them, what secret’s in them? It is because, at last, we love the darkness, Love all things in it, tired of too much light?

From “The Divine Pilgrim” by Conrad Aiken

We received a benevolence gesture in the mail that we did not expect. It was full of many nights of bed time giggles. We are so pleased to have your fourth addition of your wonderful comic book.
I did not realize until I read the note included, that you did not know how much we raved about the first issues, I think that they might have been over shadowed by our copy of Violet Eyes, which has not left the top of my desk.
Thank you, we feel loved, blessed and downright glee. (Maybe enough to kick us both our of the goth club*) Well as happy as allowed. Good eve, and thank you kindly again. Much love for the Posse Of Persuasive Paws.



*If I have not been banned until next year ... Justin is still making threatening remarks about my sunburn from the first day of setting up shelter at Burning man. I may still be tan by Christmas, that poor skin had not seen sun in years.

I just got my new issues of Gothic Beauty the other day, which means they should be on store shelves soon if not already. I think you'll get some in the mail, though, since the coloring book review is in there.
It was a pleasure meeting you in person last month at Convergence.

I was just thinking about you,
and wanted to wish you a Happy Solstice!!
I hope this summer has long magical nights,
peaceful mornings,
and plenty of time for slow cups of coffee in summer's glow.

Always, Katylin

Because I could not stop for Death He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves And Immortality


We slowly drove, he knew no haste, And I had put away My labor, and my leisure too, For his civility


We passed the school where children played, Their lessons scarcely done; We passed the fields of gazing grain, We passed the setting sun


We paused before a house that seemed A swelling of the ground; The roof was scarcely visible, The cornice but a mound


Since then 'tis centuries; but each Feels shorter than the day I first surmised the horses' heads Were toward eternity
Emily Dickenson


Thought I'd share one of my favorite poems- Have a Wonderful Week my friend!
